There are no flatpacks installed by default.  The gnome-software app 
is definitely not flatpack unless you've done something.

OK< thanks.  Not sure where I got the erroneous notion flatpacks are 
involved in the GUI app.  I stand corrected.


I think it can install flatpacks, but it isn't one.

dnf system-upgrade clean


Is it safe to manually clear out this subdirectory?


yes


Thank you, Kind Sir.  All cleaned up.

Since (I think) the gnome-software app is flat-pack based, have I messed 
anything up by running its upgrade instead of the dnf/rpm-based one?

What procedure did you follow?

leaving 2.5GB of rpms sitting in
/var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade.  'dnt clean' does not remove these.

If you follow dnf-system-upgrade, then before the `dnf system-upgrade 
reboot` step, it tells you how to abort and delete the download cache. 
But I don't remember what it says to do. Sorry about that.


(FWIW, I tried the now-recommended GUI software app's "upgrade" and it
ran  the upgrade without error, but all this cruft is still sitting
there.)

Followed the above prescribed procedure.  Final step in download 
reported 'curl' failure to download the GPG key.  Onscreen cleanup 
instructions apparently did nothing, since all the packages were still 
sitting there.  Repeated downloads also failed, reporting everything had 
already been downloaded, but barfing again on the GPG key download.


Attempting the upgrade reboot resulted in message the system "not ready 
for upgrade."

Cleanup after Failed dnf Upgrade

[Tim Evans]

Command-line dnf upgrade (F39->F40) failed yesterday, barfing on a 
missing GPG key for Fedora 40, leaving 2.5GB of rpms sitting in 
/var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade.  'dnt clean' does not remove these.
